-Clare briefed us on the already active effort among previously funded CTSC's with Imaging Cores to work together to support within and across site biomedical imaging efforts.  She stressed the importance of staying closely connected with this effort as our site will be judged by NIH in comparison with this benchmark (e.g. we should be up to speed on all that they are offering).  Group agreed to share the responsibilities of attending these T-cons and the face-to-face meetings for this and other similar efforts known to be coming (ACRIN meeting is on the radar screen for early October for instance).  Clare is willing to be our initial liaison for obtaining information on site resources.  Ron Kikinis is already hooked in on the topic of neuroinformatics.

 Group agreed this would take more discussion as this is the key focus of our work.  Liked the idea of focusing on existing expertise (MR, PET, CT) as it is reasonably well matched to current demand.  Will let investigator demand drive planning to extend our focus.  We will use our next face to face meeting at BIDMC on August 5th to tackle this.  Based on the auto-replies I got back from this morning's emails, Gordon Harris, Annick and Jeff should all be back in town and hopefully can join.  In preparation for this we agreed to gather our ideas by using "USE CASES" or examples of consults we are already receiving from Clinical Translational investigators.  Randy has started a page for this on the wiki we can all populate.  Clare will either send Randy her screening sheet they use at the BWH GCRC Imaging core to help organize this page or do it herself.

+The Morphometry BIRN and NAMIC leadership is preparing a proposal for the CTSC Imaging Consortium and Informatics Core for a data management system that would support both local clinical translational investigators doing their own imaging studies and sharing image data collections more broadly.  Randy will forward the draft document to the group in advance of next Tuesday's meeting for group discussion.

 Group reviewed MGH site resources as template for how to format all sites.  Approved the concept.  Randy will polish the MGH site resources to be in harmony with other CTSC needs with the help of the Navigators on Friday July 25th.  The navigators will then contact each site's representative to make a meeting to get all site's resources loaded in the same format.  This will be done for image acquisition, analysis visualization and data management resources as well as educational/training resources (new column added).  Agreed to include animal imaging resources but clearly separated so that when the material is migrated to CONNECTS we initially copy only the human but have the animal stuff ready to go when they are requested (as they likely will be).
